What is NUMA Optimization in FreeBSD Networking about?

The document discusses how to serve 200Gb/s of encrypted video traffic from a single FreeBSD server. To achieve this, NUMA (Non-Uniform Memory Access) siloing is needed in the FreeBSD network stack to optimize data flow and prevent bottlenecks. Specifically, keeping bulk data transfers local to each NUMA node reduces costly cross-NUMA traffic. This involves partitioning disks, memory, CPUs and network interfaces between NUMA nodes to minimize NUMA bus crossings during video serving. With these optimizations
